From the February 28, 2011, Listverse.
So you think you're having a bad day, or even year? Try trading places with these folks.
10. PETE BEST fired from the Beatles in 1962.
9. JOSEPH MERRICK-- Was kicked out of his house after his mother died in 1879. His father remarried and didn't want him in the house. Of course, Joseph Merrick is better known as "The Elephant Man."
8. JOSEPH HAZELWOOD-- Captain of the Exxon Valdoz in the oil disaster in 1989.
7. U.S. GENERAL WILLIAM HULL-- Court-martialled in 1814 after surrendering Detroit to a vastly smaller British Army.
6. FRIDA KAHLO-- severely injured in a bus accident in 1925 and took up painting. She could really show pain well.
